Sep3Thu2026 Trenton – The First Thursday Hikes @ Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge Sep 3 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Join Ranger Todd on a hike through Humbug Marsh! Each hike will be on the Orange Trail at the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. The trail surface is crushed gravel.
Register here: https://tinyurl.com/4feh5ha7
NOTE: The hikes will not take place in the rain.
Downtown Allen Park is turning Thursdays into the best nights of the week. Beginning May 2026, the Block Parties will light up the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month through October — a brand‑new event series packed with energy, creativity, and community spirit.
Each Block Party comes with its own unique theme, giving you a fresh experience every time you visit. One evening might lean into summer nostalgia, and later in the season you might find yourself in the middle of a fall‑harvest bash. No two nights will ever feel the same.
What You’ll Experience:
- Family‑friendly activities that make it easy to bring everyone along
- Curated vendors offering high‑quality goods, treats, and creative finds
- Live music tailored to each theme
- Great food from local restaurants and visiting food truck
